It uses the same spandsp engine for its front end, but hylafax for its back end. If you want to use hylafax clients, this would be the appropriate choice. Also, it does a couple of things app_rxfax won't currently do, like colour faxing. Spandsp can do T.38, but not inside Asterisk, and currently not with Hylafax. T.38 for Hylafax might be added, but integrating T.38 with a class 1 FAX modem interface for Hylafax is an awful bodge. The t38modem program from openh323 does this, and it has to do some nasty things to work. :-\ Steve
